Willowbrook Partners Program

The Community House’s Willowbrook Corner Partners Program provides counseling and therapy services to children, adolescents, adults, couples and families. Services are provided at no cost to the residents of Hinsdale Lake Terrace, Hinsdale Point, Waterfall Glen, and Echo Lane. Partnerships are the key to strong and healthy communities. The Partners Program uses relationships with other service providers to help clients find the services to meet their needs and offers them through counseling, groups and workshops.

The neighborhood of Willowbrook Corner came into being as part of public housing relocation programs in the 1970s and 80s. Located in unincorporated DuPage County, the neighborhood is not served by a municipality, and many families residing in the neighborhood live below the federal poverty level. The residents of Willowbrook Corner are not served by a municipality or a park district. As a result, the children living in the Willowbrook Corner neighborhoods do not have the same opportunities as their fellow classmates.
